One World Trade Center is an elongated square antiprism, and the term “frustum” can be used to describe the lower portion of its shape, as the top square is smaller than the base square. From the 20th floor upwards, the building’s four corners are chamfered, forming an elongated square antiprism from a square base to a smaller, rotated square top. This geometric shape creates eight tall, isosceles triangles on the building’s facade.
